Jazzuary

In January, Belgium's capital vibrates to blue notes, saxophone crescendos and groovy rhythms. There are no fewer than three jazz festivals in the second half of the month: Brussels Jazz Festival, River Jazz Festival and Djangofolllies.
Jazz-lovers can sample the diversity of the Brussels jazz scene in numerous bars and clubs across the city, as well as at the prestigious Flagey venue. From standards, through gypsy and ethio-jazz to more progressive and free jazz, you'll find it all in Brussels in January.

For his fourth edition, Flagey has woven the thriving jazz scene from the UK as a thread through an adventurous world-class program.

Spurred by Koen De Cauter, Brosella launched the very first edition of Djangofolllies to honour Django Reinhardt’s musical legacy, and in 1994 decided to make it an annual occurrence to celebrate Django’s birthday. It must be said that gypsy swing fans were far from getting their fill at the time. In the meantime, Djangofolllies has become a valuable asset and an annual fixture to the delight of both ‘Django’ style devotees and those who are being introduced to the genre for the very first time.
